Re: Has anyone in this group ever worked on the midi internals?

[Redwood (Daniel)]

Hi David and everyone,

So, I know enough now to conclude I would have to learn a great deal before I 
could accomplish my goal. Before I invest that time...

I wouldn’t want to proceed without guidance from Jan or possibly Han-Wen. Even 
if I completely accomplished the goal, I can’t see it shipping without their 
involvement, even if just to say they don’t want to be involved. But preferably 
they could provide some guidance.
